Danish foreign minister Lars Løkke Rasmussen said that he had "frank" discussions with Marco Rubio and JD Vance about the future of Greenland on Wednesday, but "our perspectives continue to differ." “We, the kingdom of Denmark, continue to believe that the long-term security of Greenland can be ensured inside the current framework, the 1951 agreement on the defense of Greenland, as well as the NATO treaty,” he said. “For us, ideas that would not respect territorial integrity of the Kingdom of Denmark and the right of self-determination of the Greenlandic people are, of course, totally unacceptable,” he said. “We therefore still have a fundamental disagreement, but we also agree to disagree,” he added.
Several NATO allies including Germany, Sweden and Norway Denmark has announced they plan to send troops to Greenland amid Trump's threats. "The United States needs Greenland for the purpose of National Security," Trump posted to his Truth Social account on Wednesday morning. "It is vital for the Golden Dome that we are building. NATO should be leading the way for us to get it. IF WE DON’T, RUSSIA OR CHINA WILL, AND THAT IS NOT GOING TO HAPPEN!"
What To Know
- The Danish and Greenlandic foreign ministers are due for talks at the White House on Wednesday with Vice President JD Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio to discuss the deepening diplomatic crisis between the NATO allies over control of the strategically-important Arctic island, the world's largest and a Danish territory, northeast of Canada.
- Trump: "NATO becomes far more formidable and effective with Greenland in the hands of the UNITED STATES. Anything less than that is unacceptable."
- Greenland's Prime Minister Jens-Frederik Nielsen said on Tuesday that "we choose Denmark" and that the island "will not be governed by the United States". Trump later dismissed Nielsen's remarks, saying "that's gonna be a big problem for him." Denmark's Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen has said a U.S. move on Greenland could end the NATO alliance.
- European allies have rallied to Denmark's side over the Greenland issue, saying the island's future and sovereignty is solely a matter for the pair to decide, not the U.S. But they have also sought to placate Trump's concerns about Arctic security, calling it a priority and discussing how NATO could step up its activities in the region.
- The Trump White House sees Greenland as vital to U.S. national security interests because of missile defense, Russian and Chinese activity in the Arctic, and the vast untapped mineral resources beneath the island that are essential to advanced manufacturing.

Is ‘Freedom City’ being planned for Greenland? What to know
With the Trump administration repeatedly highlighting its intention to acquire Greenland, questions about a proposed libertarian‑style “freedom city” have resurfaced.
Newsweek has reached out to Peter Thiel via Palantir, Marc Andreessen via Meta, and Praxis via email for comment on Monday.
President Donald Trump reiterated his desire to acquire Greenland either through purchase or occupation during a meeting at the White House on Friday where he said the Arctic island was critical for U.S. security given the threats posed by Russia and China.
However, Greenland is officially part of NATO-member Denmark’s territory and has wide-ranging autonomy with its own extensive local government.
A survey conducted last year by pollster Veria found 85 percent of Greenlanders rejected being part of the U.S. while Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen said a U.S. military invasion would spell the end of NATO, which both countries are part of.

Denmark warns Trump still seeks to ‘conquer’ Greenland
Danish Foreign Minister Lars Løkke Rasmussen said Wednesday that President Donald Trump remains intent on “conquering” Greenland, despite high-level talks in Washington failing to resolve what he called a “fundamental disagreement.” Rasmussen stressed that U.S. control of the island is “absolutely not necessary” and reiterated that such ambitions are not in Denmark’s interest.
He urged Washington to pursue “respectful” cooperation over the Arctic territory, which is a self-governing part of the Danish kingdom. The Danish defense ministry announced that France, Germany, and Norway will contribute troops to a multinational force led by Denmark, increasing military presence in and around Greenland with aircraft, ships, and soldiers from NATO allies.
While tensions remain, the two sides agreed to form a working group to explore ways of addressing U.S. security concerns without undermining Denmark’s sovereignty or Greenland’s right to self-determination. Greenland’s Foreign Minister Vivian Motzfeldt joined Rasmussen in the talks, underscoring the island’s central role in the negotiations.

Danish, Greenlandic lawmakers clash with NATO, stress self-determination
On CNN News Central Wednesday, Danish MEP Anders Vistisen and Greenlandic MP Juno Berthelsen weighed in on U.S.-hosted talks with Danish and Greenlandic officials in Washington.
Vistisen sharply criticized NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte, calling him a “weak leader” and accusing him of siding too closely with the U.S. administration. He argued Rutte had “made a fool of himself” and looked “ridiculous” as head of an alliance meant to represent free states across Europe and North America.
Berthelsen, meanwhile, underscored that Greenland’s future must center on self-determination rather than a geopolitical tug-of-war between Washington and Copenhagen. She said Greenland offers an opportunity to move beyond “colonial worldviews” and insisted independence should be pursued through international law, with equal partnerships and support packages aimed at improving the lives of Greenlanders.

GOP senators push back on Trump’s Greenland plans
As Danish and Greenlandic officials met with U.S. counterparts in Washington on Wednesday, several Republican senators voiced opposition to President Donald Trump’s push to acquire Greenland.
Sen. Mitch McConnell of Kentucky said he had “yet to hear” any justification for taking over the territory, noting that Greenland already grants the U.S. what it needs through existing agreements. Sen. Susan Collins of Maine added that if Washington seeks a larger presence, it should negotiate an expansion of the current military base rather than pursue ownership.
Later in the day, Danish Foreign Minister Lars Løkke Rasmussen, Greenland Foreign Minister Vivian Motzfeldt, and Denmark’s Ambassador Jesper Møller Sørensen were scheduled to meet with members of the Senate Arctic Caucus.
Meanwhile, a bipartisan group of lawmakers introduced legislation to block funding for any U.S. acquisition of Greenland without the consent of its people.

UN experts warn against U.S. move to seize Greenland
A group of United Nations experts has issued a strong statement backing Greenland’s right to self-determination, voicing “deep concerns” over President Donald Trump’s declared intention to take control of the Arctic territory.
The experts, appointed by the UN Human Rights Council, said any attempt to alter Greenland’s territorial or constitutional status would violate international law and risk destabilizing the region. They warned that framing the island as property to be “taken” or “owned” reflects a colonial logic the global community has long rejected.
“The peoples of Greenland, as a distinct people, are entitled to the full and free exercise of their right to self-determination,” the statement read, urging U.S. leaders to respect human dignity and fundamental rights.
The UN’s warning echoes recent declarations from European governments and NATO allies, who have collectively affirmed Greenland’s sovereignty and rejected Trump’s push to claim the resource-rich island.

US may have to pay $700 billion to achieve Trump’s goal of buying Greenland: Report
The U.S. may have to pay as much as $700 billion to fulfil President Donald Trump’s ambitions of buying Greenland, three sources told NBC News.
The cost would be more than half of the Defense Department’s annual budget but Greenland and Denmark have made it clear that the territory is not for sale.
Nevertheless, Trump has insisted that he'd "love to make a deal with them,” to acquire Greenland, which he believes is a crucial security buffer between the U.S. and Russia. But he warned that "one way or the other, we’re going to have Greenland.”

Danish foreign minister Lars Løkke Rasmussen, speaking at the same press conference, also highlighted how disruptive it was for one party to make statements about Greenland's future through social media and media reports, rather than communicating with officials directly.

Pam Bondi defends FBI raid on Washington Post reporter’s home
Former Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi has publicly defended the FBI’s raid on the home of a Washington Post journalist, framing it as part of a broader crackdown on leaks of classified material.
In a social media post, Bondi said the operation was carried out at the request of the Department of War, the Justice Department, and the FBI, targeting a reporter accused of publishing information obtained from a Pentagon contractor. She argued that the Trump administration “will not tolerate illegal leaks” that could endanger national security or U.S. service members.
Press freedom advocates have long warned that restricting reporting on leaked documents undermines a core democratic principle. Previous attempts to limit journalists’ access to sensitive material have drawn strong resistance from watchdog groups, who see such measures as a threat to accountability and transparency.

Why does Trump want Greenland?—Analysts
President Donald Trump has renewed his push to “take over” Greenland, a semi-autonomous territory of the Kingdom of Denmark, citing its strategic value for Arctic defense. Experts say the island’s location is its greatest appeal, serving as a forward position for U.S. radar and missile detection systems since the Cold War.
Rebecca Pincus, a senior fellow at the Foreign Policy Research Institute, explained that Greenland hosts advanced sensors at the Pituffik Space Base, crucial for monitoring intercontinental missile threats. While the U.S. could expand its military footprint there without annexation, Trump’s rhetoric suggests a desire for outright control.
Beyond defense, Greenland’s untapped mineral wealth — including copper, nickel, zinc, and rare earths — adds to its allure. Yet Pincus noted that extraction would take decades due to harsh conditions, lack of infrastructure, and strict environmental protections.
Russia and China have limited direct interests in Greenland, but analysts warn a U.S. takeover could set a precedent for contested regions elsewhere. Meanwhile, the financial burden of integrating Greenland would be immense, requiring billions in sustained federal spending, similar to but larger than U.S. commitments in Alaska.

Supreme Court to weigh Trump’s emergency tariff powers
President Donald Trump’s sweeping tariff policy, built on emergency powers, is now facing a critical test before the Supreme Court. Trump has argued that uneven trade relations represent “an unusual and extraordinary threat to national security,” a claim used to justify reciprocal tariffs against nearly all U.S. trading partners.
A lower court has already rejected that rationale, ruling that such measures would require congressional approval to be legal. The Supreme Court’s decision will determine whether Trump’s approach stands or falls: a ruling against him would strike at one of his most central economic policies, while a ruling in his favor would reinforce his assertion of broad presidential authority.
The case comes before a court with a 6–3 conservative majority, raising the stakes for both Trump’s trade agenda and the balance of executive power.

In an interview with BBC Radio 4’s Today programme, Nawrocki framed the issue within broader global tensions, citing “the military aggression of the Russian Federation” and “economic competition between the United States and China” as the lens through which Europe views the Arctic.

Trump orders NATO to tell Denmark to remove Russian, Chinese military from Greenland
President Donald Trump has told Denmark to remove Chinese and Russian military from Greenland, while sharing shared an article highlighting Danish intelligence concerns about their presence.
The "Intelligence Outlook 2025" report, released just last month, warned that “China is preparing for a military presence in the Arctic” - and that its Arctic interests included Greenland. It also highlighted Chinese military presence in the Arctic, including ships, submersibles and aircraft. The report stated that China and Russia were collaborating more closely in the region, while Moscow was carefully monitoring the waters between Greenland, Iceland, the Faroe Islands, and the United Kingdom in case of a potential NATO confrontation.
In a post on Truth Social on Wednesday, Trump ordered NATO to tell Denmark to remove to threat, before adding that only the U.S. could do it effectively.
"NATO: Tell Denmark to get them out of here, NOW! Two dogsleds won’t do it! Only the USA can!!!" he said.

Trump ramps up Greenland pressure, cites Russian and Chinese threats
U.S. President Donald Trump has intensified his social media campaign on Greenland, urging Denmark to confront alleged Russian and Chinese threats to the Arctic territory. In one post, he declared that “only the USA can” secure the region, mocking Denmark’s military presence by writing, “Two dogsleds won’t do it!”
Trump also shared a Danish intelligence report published last month that warned of escalating great-power competition in the Arctic. The report noted that Russia, China, and the United States all seek greater influence in the region, with Washington viewing Greenland as a critical line of defense. It highlighted the role of Pituffik Space Base in missile detection and underscored U.S. military exercises with allies as part of its Arctic strategy.
The assessment cautioned that Russia retains strong capabilities in the Arctic despite economic strain, including the ability to deploy fighters and bombers on short notice. It predicted Moscow would respond aggressively to Western military activity, while China is expected to build independent naval capacity in Arctic waters within the next decade.
Analysts warned that Russia and China may expand cooperation, potentially staging joint exercises in the Arctic as early as 2026, a move that would serve as strategic signaling to the United States and its allies.

Poulsen, who also serves as deputy prime minister, told AFP that Copenhagen plans not only to expand its footprint on the island but also to intensify NATO exercises and increase allied activity in the Arctic. “We will continue to strengthen our military presence in Greenland, but we will also have an even greater focus within NATO on more exercises and an increased NATO presence in the Arctic,” he said.

Polish President Karol Nawrocki declined to weigh in on U.S. President Donald Trump’s push to acquire Greenland, saying the issue should be handled directly between Washington and Copenhagen.
Speaking to BBC Radio 4 during a visit to the UK, Nawrocki emphasized that the matter was for Denmark’s prime minister and Trump to discuss. He framed the debate within broader global tensions, noting Russia’s military aggression and economic competition between the U.S. and China as the context through which Poland views the Arctic.
Pressed on whether he was reassuring European leaders about Trump’s ambitions, Nawrocki said only: “I’m not able to predict the future.”

Greenland PM: Independence debate must wait amid U.S. threats
Greenland’s Prime Minister Jens-Frederik Nielsen has urged caution over discussions of the island’s future independence, warning that such debates could undermine its right to self-determination as U.S. President Donald Trump intensifies threats to take control of the territory.
Speaking to Greenlandic media, Nielsen said, “We shouldn’t gamble with our right to self-determination when another country is talking about taking us.” He emphasized that while independence may be a goal in the future, the priority now is unity with Denmark.
“Here and now, we are part of the kingdom, and we stand with the kingdom. That is particularly important in this serious situation,” Nielsen added.

Poll shows overwhelming U.S. opposition to Trump’s Greenland push
A new Reuters/Ipsos poll reveals that only 17% of Americans support President Donald Trump’s efforts to acquire Greenland, with broad opposition across party lines to the idea of using military force.
Nearly half of respondents—47%—said they disapproved of U.S. attempts to take control of the Arctic territory, while 35% were unsure. Just 4% of Americans, including one in 10 Republicans and almost no Democrats, said military action to annex Greenland would be a “good idea.”
Concerns about the impact on NATO and U.S. alliances were widespread. Two-thirds of respondents expressed worry that Trump’s campaign could damage transatlantic ties, including 91% of Democrats and 40% of Republicans.

EU’s von der Leyen affirms Greenland’s sovereignty amid U.S. pressure
European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen voiced strong support for Greenland on Tuesday, stressing that the Arctic territory “belongs to its people” as U.S. President Donald Trump intensifies efforts to acquire it.
Speaking at a press conference in Brussels, von der Leyen underscored that decisions about Greenland’s future rest solely with Denmark and Greenland. She said the EU remains in close contact with Copenhagen “to listen to what their needs are,” while highlighting that Greenland is part of NATO through Denmark’s membership.
Von der Leyen emphasized the EU’s longstanding ties with Greenlanders, insisting that Europe’s commitment is demonstrated “by deeds, not only by words.” Her remarks come as Trump continues to argue that U.S. control of the island is necessary for national security, a stance that has drawn sharp opposition from both Danish and Greenlandic leaders.

Denmark and Greenland rebuff Trump’s push as officials meet in Washington
Danish and Greenlandic foreign ministers are meeting U.S. counterparts in Washington this week amid President Donald Trump’s escalating demands to acquire Greenland. Foreign Minister Lars Lokke Rasmussen and Greenland’s Vivian Motzfeldt are leading the delegation in talks with Vice President JD Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio.
Trump has repeatedly insisted the United States must secure sovereignty over the Arctic territory, warning that Russia or China could otherwise gain influence. He has dismissed Denmark’s military presence on the island and said “ownership” is the only acceptable outcome.
Officials in Copenhagen and Nuuk have firmly rejected the idea. Greenland’s Prime Minister Jens-Frederik Nielsen declared, “Greenland will not be owned by the United States,” while all five parties in Greenland’s parliament issued a joint statement: “We do not want to be Americans, we do not want to be Danes, we want to be Greenlanders.”
Analysts say the meeting underscores the seriousness of Trump’s rhetoric, which has unsettled NATO allies and raised questions about U.S. reliability. Denmark has already announced a $6.5 billion Arctic defense package and emphasized that Greenland’s security is guaranteed through NATO. European leaders have echoed that stance, warning that any U.S. attempt to annex the territory would destabilize the alliance.

Denmark to expand NATO military exercises in Greenland amid rising Arctic tensions
Denmark has announced plans to intensify military exercises in Greenland in cooperation with NATO allies, citing growing security concerns in the Arctic. The Ministry of Defence said the expanded drills will strengthen allied capabilities in harsh polar conditions and reinforce security across Europe and the Atlantic.
Upcoming exercises in 2026 will involve larger deployments of aircraft, naval vessels, and troops, alongside coordination with Greenlandic authorities, Inuit-led partners, and local police. The Arctic Command will provide regular updates to residents and maintain dialogue with local stakeholders.
The move builds on operations conducted in 2025 with contributions from Germany, France, Sweden, and Norway, which focused on defending Greenland’s critical infrastructure.
Foreign Minister Vivian Motzfeldt emphasized that bolstering Arctic security is a priority under NATO membership, while Defence Minister Troels Lund Poulsen said the expanded activities are a “natural continuation” of last year’s efforts. He added that Denmark and its allies will assess further increases in presence and cooperation in the coming weeks.

Denmark-Greenland talks with U.S. shifted from White House to Eisenhower building
A planned meeting between Danish Foreign Minister Lars Løkke Rasmussen, Greenland’s Foreign Minister Vivian Motzfeldt, and U.S. Vice President JD Vance will no longer take place at the White House, Danish media reported Wednesday.
TV 2’s U.S. correspondent Lotte Mejlhede said the talks have been relocated to Vance’s ceremonial office in the Eisenhower Executive Office Building, which sits adjacent to but separate from the West Wing.
Mejlhede noted the move could be seen as an effort to lower the intensity of the discussions by distancing them from President Donald Trump and the Oval Office. The meeting had originally been announced for the White House on Tuesday, alongside Secretary of State Marco Rubio.

Denmark and Greenland to tell U.S.: island ‘not for sale’
Danish and Greenlandic foreign ministers are set to deliver a firm message to Vice President JD Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio at the White House: Greenland will remain under Danish governance and is not for sale. The meeting follows days of threats from President Donald Trump, who has suggested military force could be used to seize the Arctic territory.
Trump’s comments have rattled NATO and the European Union, prompting discussions on security responses. EU diplomats say member states are weighing the use of Article 42.7, the bloc’s mutual defense clause, which would allow voluntary troop deployments to Greenland if Denmark requested support. NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte has emphasized unity against external threats but declined to confirm plans for an expanded European mission in the Arctic.
Greenland’s Premier Jens-Frederik Nielsen called the situation “very, very serious,” stressing that his country faces immense geopolitical pressure. “If we have to choose between the USA and Denmark here and now, we choose Denmark,” he said.
Despite Trump’s insistence that Greenland is vital to U.S. national security, officials in Copenhagen have reiterated that while greater U.S. military cooperation is welcome under existing agreements, the island’s sovereignty is not negotiable.

Trump’s Greenland push ignores existing U.S. military access
President Donald Trump has mocked Denmark’s dog sled patrols in Greenland and raised alarms about alleged Chinese and Russian ships near the island, intensifying his campaign to bring the Arctic territory under U.S. control. While aides have floated both purchase and force as options, experts note Washington already enjoys sweeping military rights under a 1951 defense agreement with Denmark.
That pact, updated in 2004 to include Greenland’s government, allows the U.S. to build and operate bases, station personnel, and control military movements across the island. Analysts say the arrangement gives Washington nearly everything it needs without annexation. “The U.S. has such a free hand in Greenland that it can pretty much do what it wants,” said Mikkel Runge Olesen of the Danish Institute for International Studies.
Greenland’s leaders have firmly rejected Trump’s takeover rhetoric, stressing the island “is not for sale.” Polls show most of its 57,000 residents oppose becoming part of the United States, though many favor eventual independence from Denmark. European leaders have also warned that any attempt to seize Greenland would shatter NATO and the international order.
Despite Trump’s fixation, experts argue the U.S. could strengthen its Arctic presence simply by invoking the existing defense framework—without triggering a geopolitical crisis.

Greenlanders voice anger and fear over Trump’s takeover threats
In Nuuk, where snow and Arctic winds define daily life, residents say a new storm is brewing—U.S. President Donald Trump’s vow to seize Greenland “the easy way or the hard way.” Locals interviewed in the capital expressed frustration and alarm at the rhetoric, insisting the island belongs to its people, not Denmark or Washington.
High school teacher Simone Bagai called Trump’s demands a “complete lack of understanding” of Greenland’s rights, stressing that “Greenland is for the Greenlandic people.” Municipal engineer Ludvig Petersen worried about U.S.-style privatization of health care and education, saying he fears Trump will eventually force control.
Others echoed the sentiment. A taxi driver lamented the erosion of traditional Inuit life due to climate change and dismissed Trump as “small.” Business owner Mia Chemnitz warned that U.S. ownership could erase Greenland’s culture, noting that while she once welcomed American customers, Trump’s threats have “pushed us away.”
Polls show most Greenlanders favor independence from Denmark but strongly reject becoming part of the United States. For many, Trump’s campaign feels less about people and more about land and resources, deepening the disconnect between Greenland’s peaceful society and the ambitions of a global superpower.

Denmark and Greenland push back as Trump renews takeover threats
Greenland’s Prime Minister Jens-Frederik Nielsen and Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen presented a united front Tuesday, rejecting U.S. President Donald Trump’s renewed demands to acquire Greenland. “If we have to choose between the United States and Denmark here and now, we choose Denmark,” Nielsen said at a joint news conference in Copenhagen.
Trump has insisted the United States must secure Greenland for security reasons, even suggesting military force as an option. Secretary of State Marco Rubio has floated a purchase instead, though Denmark lacks authority to sell the territory and Greenland’s leaders have repeatedly dismissed the idea.
The White House meeting with U.S., Danish, and Greenlandic officials marks the first formal discussion of Trump’s threats. Analysts say the presence of Vice President JD Vance raises the stakes, signaling Washington’s seriousness despite strong opposition from European allies. Meanwhile, a bipartisan group of U.S. lawmakers is set to travel to Copenhagen this weekend to demonstrate resistance to Trump’s aggressive campaign.

Trump declares Greenland ‘unacceptable’ to lose ahead of high-stakes meeting
President Donald Trump escalated his push to acquire Greenland on Wednesday, declaring that “anything less than” U.S. control of the Arctic territory would be “unacceptable.” His remarks came hours before the first trilateral meeting between officials from Greenland, Denmark, and the United States since tensions over the island intensified.
In a post on Truth Social, Trump argued that Greenland was essential to national security, warning that Russia or China could seize influence if Washington failed to act. He added that NATO would be “far more formidable” with Greenland under U.S. authority.
The meeting at the White House, attended by Vice President JD Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio, follows Trump’s repeated threats to take the island “whether they like it or not.” Denmark’s Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen has warned that any U.S. attack would destroy NATO, while Greenland’s Prime Minister Jens-Frederik Nielsen reaffirmed this week that the territory is not for sale and remains aligned with Denmark.

Trump’s Greenland push sparks NATO and Danish backlash
U.S. President Donald Trump has renewed demands to acquire Greenland, insisting the island is vital to American national security and warning he could pursue control “the easy way or the hard way.” While the White House has floated the idea of a purchase, Trump has not ruled out military force.
Greenland’s leaders and Denmark, a NATO member, have rejected the proposal outright. Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen warned that any attempt to annex the semi-autonomous territory would spell the end of the alliance. European leaders including the UK, France, Germany, Italy, Poland and Spain issued a joint statement affirming that “Greenland belongs to its people.”
Greenland, the world’s largest island, is strategically located in the Arctic between North America and Europe. Its Pituffik Space Base, operated by the U.S. since World War Two, plays a key role in missile monitoring. The island’s sparse population of about 56,000 relies heavily on fishing and Danish subsidies, though interest in its mineral and energy reserves has grown as ice melts.
Trump’s threats have alarmed Copenhagen and NATO allies, who stress that Greenland’s future must be decided by Denmark and Greenland alone. Polls show most Greenlanders favor independence from Denmark but strongly oppose becoming part of the United States.
Vice President JD Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio are set to meet Danish and Greenlandic officials at the White House, as tensions over the Arctic territory reach a critical point.

Trump’s push for Greenland delays its independence from Denmark
Greenland has for years been moving towards independence from Denmark, seeking greater autonomy along the way. There is widespread popular appetite for independence, seen as an inevitability.
But the irony of U.S. President Donald Trump's aggressive push to secure Greenland—or at least wield greater influence over it by cleaving it from Copenhagen—is that it appears to have stalled those efforts and, for now at least, pushed the island closer to Denmark.
"This is not the time to talk about independence," Greenland's Prime Minister Jens-Frederik Nielsen told the Greenlandic outlet Sermitsiaq, originally in Danish.
"This is not the time to gamble with our right to self-determination when another country talks about taking us over. That doesn't mean we don't want something in the future.
"But here and now, we are part of the Kingdom, and we stand together with the Kingdom. This is extremely important in this serious situation."

Trump’s Greenland ambitions raise NATO alarm
The White House has confirmed that “all options” remain on the table as President Donald Trump pursues control of Greenland, including the possibility of military force. Analysts warn such a move would pit one NATO member against another, creating an existential crisis for the alliance.
Trump has repeatedly claimed Greenland is vital to U.S. security, alleging without evidence that the island is “covered with Russian and Chinese ships.” Experts say while a military operation could be logistically feasible given Greenland’s small population and limited defenses, the fallout would be catastrophic for U.S.-European relations and international law. Former officials insist Congress would resist any attempt to undermine NATO.
Beyond military action, Washington has explored the idea of purchasing Greenland, though both Copenhagen and Nuuk have rejected the notion. Legal experts note any treaty would require Greenlandic participation to respect self-determination, while the financial cost could run into trillions—an unlikely sell to Trump’s political base.
More plausible, analysts suggest, is an influence campaign aimed at Greenland’s independence movement, offering economic incentives and partnerships similar to U.S. arrangements with Pacific nations. Yet polls show most Greenlanders favor independence from Denmark, not integration with the United States, leaving Trump’s ambitions facing strong local and international resistance.

Greenland’s NATO role tied to Denmark’s membership
Greenland is part of NATO through Denmark’s founding membership in the alliance, with Copenhagen’s defense commitments extending across the entire Kingdom of Denmark, including the autonomous Arctic territory.
While Greenland exercises broad self-government, Denmark retains authority over foreign affairs and defense. The Danish military’s Joint Arctic Command oversees the island’s security, ensuring NATO’s collective defense guarantees apply—meaning any attack on Greenland would be treated as an attack on the alliance itself.
Greenland’s strategic location has long made it vital to transatlantic security. The U.S. maintains a significant presence at Pituffik Space Base, formerly Thule Air Base, which plays a central role in North American and allied defense operations.

Polls show what Americans think about Trump moves on Greenland
Do Americans buy into President Trump's moves on Greenland? Polling suggests not.
A new Reuters/Ipsos poll found that just 17 percent of 1,217 U.S. adults surveyed approved of U.S. efforts to acquire Greenland.
Moreover, just 4 percent thought it was a good idea to take the Danish territory by force, which the White House has pointedly left open as an option despite Greenland belonging to a NATO ally.
There is similar unease about military action reflected in a new AP/NORC poll, too.
The U.S. used its military power in Venezuela to capture Nicolas Maduro, has floated doing so to take Greenland, and strikes on Iran are also on the cards to aid protesters against the regime there.
But 56 percent of U.S. adults polled by AP/NORC think Trump has overstepped on military interventions abroad.
Democrats and independents are driving the belief that Trump has overstepped.
About 9 in 10 Democrats and roughly 6 in 10 independents say Trump has “gone too far” on military intervention, compared with about 2 in 10 Republicans.
The vast majority of Republicans, 71 percent, say Trump’s actions have been “about right,” and only about 1 in 10 want to see him go further.

Macron warns of ‘unprecedented’ consequences if Greenland sovereignty threatened
French President Emmanuel Macron cautioned Wednesday that any challenge to the sovereignty of a European ally would carry “unprecedented” consequences, remarks aimed at U.S. President Donald Trump’s push to assert control over Greenland.
“We do not underestimate statements on Greenland,” Macron said during a cabinet meeting, according to government spokesperson Maud Bregeon. He stressed France’s commitment to stand “in full solidarity with Denmark and its sovereignty” as tensions mount over the Arctic territory.
European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen earlier underscored the EU’s close ties with Greenland, assuring residents they could rely on European support.
The warning comes as Denmark and Greenland’s foreign ministers prepare to meet U.S. Vice President JD Vance at the White House, following weeks of threats by Trump against the autonomous Danish territory.
